Dragon's Origin

Chapter 127: Digging a Pit and Waiting for Him to Come (Part 2)

Wang Sheng did indeed arrive, but he was still many days later than Dai Wuji's calculated date. Catching bugs took five days, but traveling in the Thousand Absolute Land couldn't be compared to the speed in ordinary places. He spent another three days in the Thousand Absolute Land alone.

Along the way, he had to carefully take care of the little spider and hide his tracks, so naturally, he was slow. By the time he arrived, he was a full ten days late. Ten days was enough time for Dai Wuji to arrange everything and even become impatient waiting.

The one observing Dai Wuji was naturally Wang Sheng, but Wang Sheng didn't approach the Dai family's ancestral graves here. Instead, he observed from a distance using binoculars. His enhanced eyesight, coupled with the magnification of the binoculars, was enough for Wang Sheng to see Dai Wuji's every move from ten miles away.

Wang Sheng still underestimated Dai Wuji's cultivation and underestimated Dai Wuji's keenness. The moment he first saw this place and lingered on Dai Wuji for a while, he had already been discovered by Dai Wuji.

"Finally here!" Dai Wuji almost cried out with joy. Was it easy for him to stay in this place with no entertainment? He finally had someone to amuse himself with, but he was so late.

If Wang Sheng's eyesight was several times stronger and could see through things, he would definitely be able to clearly see the expression on Dai Wuji's face at this moment, with his back to Wang Sheng. That kind of joy after suffering was even more exaggerated than Huang Bo's expression in "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" when Sun Wukong tricked Tang monk to take off the lotus seal.

"When you patrol, you must be careful and must not let him discover that you have already discovered him, do you hear me?" Dai Wuji specifically emphasized this point again when he instructed the guards at night.

The guards' performances were also more exaggerated than the last. Their moods were exactly the same as Dai Wuji's, except they weren't as powerful as Dai Wuji and couldn't discover that they were being spied on. But Dai Wuji's words must be correct, that barbarian must have arrived nearby.

Dai Wuji discovered that he was being observed and spied on, but he couldn't find Wang Sheng's location. This made the joy in Dai Wuji's heart indescribable. How long has it been since he had such a fun toy? He must play with it for a long time no matter what!

Under Wang Sheng's careful observation with the binoculars, the feng shui of the Dai family's ancestral graves was indeed good. Several continuous mountains surrounded it, and there was a large river in front. The scenery was beautiful, with mountains and rivers, a first-class feng shui even if it was placed on Earth.

To foolishly take action and assassinate as soon as he arrived was courting death. Wang Sheng was a top elite sniper, not that kind of low-level assassin. He had to observe the other party's movements and make the most appropriate action plan before taking action.

So, Wang Sheng's next actions surprised and delighted Dai Wuji. Wang Sheng changed several locations in a row and patiently observed Dai Wuji's activities every day.

The more cautious and patient Wang Sheng was, the more Dai Wuji liked it. If Wang Sheng disregarded everything and used his artifact to give himself a shot from a distance, how boring would that be? This kind of battle of wits was more enjoyable for Dai Wuji.

The head of the Dai family had been notified by a guard, and the head of the family secretly rushed to Dai Wuji's side under the cover of night, advising him to be more careful. Just a small assassin, sending out a few experts would be enough to eliminate him.

"Definitely not!" Dai Wuji directly stopped the head of the family: "I still have to stay here for a few months, I'm so bored. I finally have someone to accompany me to relieve my boredom, you must not kill him casually."

"His artifact is powerful, capable of taking people's heads from several miles away." The head of the family certainly didn't want to see his golden medal fighter and golden undercover have an accident, and specifically emphasized the power of Wang Sheng's sniper rifle.

"Do you think I'm an incompetent idler like Xiao Sizi?" Dai Wuji flatly rejected the head of the family. In order to dispel the head of the family's concerns, he had to reveal his trump card: "Don't worry, the disciples from Worry-Free City estimated that although his weapon is powerful, it can only deal with those in the Sixth Realm at most, and that's without armor."

Opening his coat, Dai Wuji let the head of the family see the inner armor he was wearing inside. The head of the family could naturally recognize at a glance that it was a treasure of the family. With Dai Wuji's seventh-realm cultivation, coupled with this inner armor, even if Wang Sheng's sniper rifle was twice as powerful, it would not be able to do anything to Dai Wuji.

Dai Wuji knew the estimated power of Wang Sheng's sniper rifle, and the head of the family naturally knew it as well. Seeing that Dai Wuji didn't relax his vigilance because of his high cultivation, the head of the family felt relieved.

"Protect your head well too." After giving a word of warning, the head of the family didn't say anything more: "Take action to kill him when you've played enough, don't leave any future troubles!"

Dai Wuji of course agreed with a mouthful. After seeing off the head of the family, Dai Wuji discussed with a few smart guards for a long time and began to create illusions for Wang Sheng.

The result of everyone's discussion was that if Wang Sheng wanted to kill Dai Wuji, he would definitely sneak over from the surrounding mountains. No matter what method he used, he would have to approach a certain distance. The most convenient thing was the surrounding mountains. Wasn't Wang Sheng known to be most lethal in the mountains and forests? Could he abandon his advantage?

They hadn't thought about coming from the river in front, but the river was too wide, a full seven or eight miles. This distance was no longer something that could be crossed in the air by any magical weapon. According to Worry-Free City's estimation of the power of Wang Sheng's sniper rifle, the range was at most five miles.

It must be said that this estimate was definitely the closest to the true range. It was indeed impossible for Wang Sheng to kill Dai Wuji with one shot from across the river seven or eight miles away. Not to mention that the range was not enough, even if the range was enough, the power would not be enough to kill Dai Wuji.

In order to create an opportunity for Wang Sheng, the guards specially selected a patrol route that seemed meticulous but had several hidden breakthrough points after more than a month of research. They patrolled every day in a feigned manner, just waiting for Wang Sheng to secretly slip to nearby from those weak points.

As for the main character, Elder Dai Wuji, of course he couldn't not participate. He didn't need to patrol, but he designed the defense of his residence to be not so rigorous. As long as someone had the intention, they could still secretly sneak in.

If Wang Sheng couldn't even get close to him, then this assassin was too unskilled. Elder Dai wouldn't have enough fun, how could that be?

So, Dai Wuji also made his life as regular as possible, so that Wang Sheng could find opportunities from it.

Every morning, Dai Wuji got up to do morning practice and cultivation, ate breakfast, and then took a fishing rod to a simple small dock made of wood by the river to fish. He ate lunch, took a nap, cultivated in the afternoon, read books in the evening, and slept. His life was so regular, just waiting for Wang Sheng to take action.

Wang Sheng didn't disappoint Dai Wuji's arrangement. After observing from several directions, he seemed to have finally determined the direction to strike.
